Solihull PPG Network Comments; Possible reasons why practices do not have a PPG. They do not have the staff to meet patient needs. GP’s and Practice Manager are too busy with other issues. Have tried previously but was either too troublesome or it eventually failed. No patient leaders available to start one. Possible reasons why PPG’s do not send delegates to the Network. Some PPG’s are virtual only, so have no mechanism for selecting delegates. Others do not want to be exposed to comparison with others. One PPG is currently in crisis and is trying to resolve its issues. Thanks to Tony Green for this insight to current position.

Solihull PPG Network Questions; Should we make contact with the practices that do not have a current PPG with any offer of assistance? Should we enquire to those PPG’s that have not attended or only have only attended once, to ascertain the reason? Should we conduct a survey of all PPG’s to find out what they think of the Network? Can it be improved? If so, how? To obtain information about each PPG, its make up, membership type, numbers, communications etc.

Any comments or suggestions? Finally; Any comments or suggestions?
